American composer Richard Danielpour has gained popularity since his opera Margaret Garner, with a libretto by Toni Morrison, found multiple performances around the U.S., including a run at the New York City Opera. The Nashville Symphony and conductor Giancarlo Guerrero have shown a strong instinct for music that can connect with its audience, and they did well to seek out these orchestral songs by Danielpour for a set of concerts in 2015, recorded here. Both the cycles deal with war in some way. The War Songs, from 2008, come from around the same time as Margaret Garner and offer somewhat operatic settings of Walt Whitman's poetry. The work was inspired by photos of the Iraq War dead. The Songs of Solitude were composed shortly after the terrorist attacks of 2001 in New York, when Yeats' World War I-influenced poems took on a new significance as it seemed that once again "things fall apart." Danielpour's eclectic approach is on display here, with the "Drinking Song" taking on a musical theater setting, but this does not diminish the seriousness of the work. Both these pieces receive their recorded premieres here, and it would be hard to think of a more effective interpreter than baritone Thomas Hampson. Toward the Splendid City, one in a long line of musical evocations of New York, rings down the curtain effectively. A good introduction to Danielpour's work.
